    If the other rigger works in the bad rigger plug, its likely not the plug. Take off the 8 bolts or however many it is on the side panel and check out the switch and the board. If they are bad, you will likely see a noticeable issue with them. My guess its the switch. Mine started acting the same way. I only ever ran one rod holder on it, which leaves one bolt hole open where the second rod holder would go. After i ordered the switch (https://www.fish307.com/cannon-downrigger-part-2286792-switch-shortstop-3-prong/) i also ordered a second rod holder to prevent this issue. only happened to one of my two riggers though, the starboard side with the open bolt hole to the outside of the gunwale, likely from running cross-wave in rough conditions. Here is what my switch looked like. Obvious moisture in there too, but board looked fine. Switch kinda sits in the lowest portion of the housing, thus getting all the moisture pooled up on it

    Probably the switch. Mine started acting up mid season, some water got into the housing from the open rod holder bolt hole on the outside. Took it apart and switch was all corroded. Cheap fix. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I went 4-5 solo yesterday off the tip of the finger. 3 smaller kings and a laker, lost what felt like a good king. Mostly meat on divers. Lotta boats out but didnt see anyone doing much, lots of moving around and many boats pulling lines and headed south, just a little too rough yesterday for me to want to make that far of a run Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I know this is a long shot, but looking for a drive shaft (Part No. 69G-455-10-10-00) or even an entire lower unit assembly for a late model long shaft Yamaha t9.9. For some crazy, unknown reason, I broke my drive shaft in my kicker last week. Engine is under warranty (bought new in 2016), but part is backordered until Sept 10 and I cant stand being without a kicker that long. Let me know what you have.

    PM sent. I keep my boat in Sackets and would be glad to show you the ropes. There are some good folks around our area, and i've taken several army guys out new to the area. My wife is active duty at Drum as well and i was in similar shoes when I moved here in 2015.

    nice! thanks. A bit too early and a little out of my range for now, but good use of space.

    Would be interested in seeing pics of the whole rig if possible. Was looking to buy and outfit a similar boat after this season, I'd like to see how you have it all set up.

    A lot of guys pick port side for kicker because driver is usually on starboard. I have a swim ladder on port, so i picked starboard. It does list some, but not too terribly bad.

    I really like Dexter-russell sani-safe for small-medium sized fillet knives (walleye, browns, perch, etc) , and bubba blade 12" for kings. I've been on the same knives for the last few years and they havent let me down.

    If not interested in my used one, I did find this one too... http://www.tacklehaven.com/depth-raider-antenna-dr-1020/ Says it should work with Depth Raider and Moor. It certainly looks the same as a moor.

    These are the best klinchers I found for the subtroll. http://www.tacklehaven.com/depth-raider-probe-klincher-kit-part-dr-1016/ I would order a few in case you need to change out or switch around your coated cable. I run a subtroll and I bought a whole subtroll set up on ebay last year for a spare probe and spare parts. I'd be willing to part with the antenna, dont know what they sell for though. PM me an offer? Also located in watertown/ sackets

    Congrats to all who killed! This guy fooled me yesterday morning. I fooled him today at 0630 though. Black River, NY.

    I had the boat out in BRB on tuesday night, I was seeing surface temps as high as 46 towards black river and 42 and dropping further out towards the main lake.

    They put a lot of strain on the gunnels. Make sure the baseplates are solid, backed, or in good tracks. I run board snubbers on amish outfitters boards for added strain relief when the board hit waves and bounce. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Yessir on the backer plate. I used a piece of 4" x 8" or so 1/4" aluminum stock . I dont have trim tabs, but this bracket would definitely get in the way of them. Before I bought it, I did find this thread on another board from a guy with a similar boat to mine and his trim tab fix with the same bracket. If I ever did get tabs, I would have to go this route. Bracket is unique in that its two piece, so the trim tab ram can be installed inside the bracket. https://keywestboatsforum.com/kicker-mount-211-dc-2020dc-t2489.html

    I have this one: http://www.discountmarinesupplies.com/Motor_Mounts_Accessory-Panther_550027_Fixed_Outboard_Motor_Bracket.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwwPfVBRBiEiwAdkM0HewzfBw6hiQIJ9T0--C2ZEWz0WRA3nL98cXsDleVFM_qsgdLMMvcphoCyqMQAvD_BwE I wanted a fixed position bracket for a heavy T9.9. This one has a few different holes to set the kicker higher or lower to work with your transom. My wellcraft has more a euro transom, so this worked well. If you have a straight transom, I dont think this still would work, as there is not much set back. I dont have a great pic of it, but this will give you an idea.

    They definitely help, but not required. Last year i ran a 124 mm dipsey on 2 and a 107 mm diver on 3, both on wire, both on 9 foot rods on the same side with no issues. As stated above, keep the boat straight and deploy carefully. Inside shorter and deeper, outside higher and longer Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I fish a few weekends a year out of Erie PA, not far from the NY line. I’ve always fished out of my boat or a buddy’s, but we usually stay at Green Roof Inn in Girard PA about 15 minutes from the public Walnut Creek launch. Great facilities there. Just booked today for June 29 - July 2nd. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
